Hey Guys

Any thought about Women who make more money than you? I'm totally secure of my career because I feel I've worked extremely hard to where I am now and feel life is amazing at this point.

Because of this new lifestyle I've been meeting women with successful careers. Recently I was sarging solo and met a woman who was in Public Relations. She is very attractive but we couldn't connect socially because of the fact she's experienced the world in ways I'm just starting.

How do you guys feel about these women that have more success than men but we still have to show higher status?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that career does not define your status. It may in the business world. But your work isn't you. It's part of you. You've experienced different things, some of those things these women have never experienced before.

I'd have to disagree about career and status. A good job with a successful career open a person up to more opportunities in life. A person can afford dinners, vacations, getaways & other activities.

I've been enjoying concerts this passed year and without my new job I would never have been able to do such a thing. I would have had to save money for months just for a single ticket and this would have to kill my social life.

But now I have get 2 tickets to a venue and still hang out with friends or women after the performance. So I would have to say they do go hand in hand when it comes to women.

Also in relation to this post, the fact a woman can do more because she can travel for business and see 3 cities in a single week over a man who would be lucky to travel at all would give her more status.

In the case of the woman I was with she would discuss about Houston, Detroit, Cancun, Miami and more. The only places I can mention are 3 places I've ever been to. Now this effect my social status to a woman such as her. Also I'm attracted to women with activities now so I wish to appear an Alpha with topics to prove it.

You can either:

A. Get better than her career wise.

B. Do the simplier things in life. People like that generally forget how pleasurable simple things are.

Meh I'm going to speculate that she wanted someone "worldly" and that you traveling to only 3 other places turned her off. If you had traveled a lot, it likely wouldn't have mattered jack shit that you earned less.

One time I met a woman far richer (and 10 years older) than me, I convinced her to buy us both tickets to South America, and her and I backpacked around for cheap in South America. We're still friends and still reminisce about it (except for the fact that I came down with Dengue Fever when we got back). I've asked her about it and she said she did it because it was the biggest thrill she'd had in a while, and frankly, that's what I continue to find women are after. Sure they want stability, but they also want some guy who shows them a strapping good time, and if she values travel, she probably thinks you won't be able to give that to her.

And frankly, I say, fair enough. I don't typically get involved at all if I find a woman who hates to travel either, just not worth the energy.

My suggestion is, travel and go get some south American booty to make yourself feel better.

It does define your status, socially and economically.

Yea...what you do is related to your status. If you are trying to get a model, you saying you're a janitor probably won't cut it (assume Matt Damon looks).

This is a harsh reality, but Long term relationships have a lot to do with economic balance.

Ironically, being "high status" takes a lot of effort and leaves little room for "pick up" and learning to understand women. You can have sex with a girl that is much higher status, but later down the line...that access to opportunities etc will become glaringly obvious.

But do not be fooled into thinking because you're a doctor, you're going to be in pimp mode. Women use their affection and marriage to sell a dream to guys that are looking for it. That doctor that worked through med school sitting in his room all day being little to nothing of a social guy will be experienced to a woman who is far from his league in terms of social experience (obviously).

I think people are however deluded into thinking that their jobs or their material wealth gets them the girl. You DO NOT need material things to get a girl (as long as you can sustain yourself to some level or if someone is helping you etc)

BUT ironically if you have these things you can be seen as "Boyfriend" material.

Truth time and this is going to hurt a lot of you people: I truly believe that love while it can be real and feel emotionally powerful, is essentially a value based system (this is something Mystery said). Now I hate to be that guy..and this topic is one that is so strongly debated, but just because you have money and you're her boyfriend

DOES NOT mean you were the best lover she has had or she's not fucking around with someone on the side or hasn't had 30 guys fulfill her in ways you never could.

Tough reality when I meet the suckers that are working so hard for their 'passion' thinking it will get them a pure and honest woman that they can have unlimited sex with, and realistically you are just the provider...and maybe a bit of the lover but in the end you're just someone she feels real emotions with but can also exploit value from.

So the real balance comes from doing things that you want FOR yourself - not because you think you'll get laid cause you're making 6 figures, and lastly if you do find a girl, good luck trying to qualify her without relying on crutches such as a fast car, money etc.

A good thing about you OP, you didn't try to fake your own persona to get with her. Realistically, I know a lot of rich women that would date down...the rest is just such a myth. But obviously, when it comes to social pressure - like everyone (including us in terms of long term relationships), a woman regardless of how shallow it might sound DOES want stability. This girl - she wanted a man that did more than her it sounds like. Tough...very tough.

Guess what such things do. Yes you don't need such things to get a girl but as said in another threat attractive life styles are going to attract girls. And if you want high quality girls you increase your chances with having such things. That is just reality, because really how many times do you hear a girl marrying down and not up? Ya girls left and right will sleep with guys that are lower than them but not get into serious relationships and marry them.
Love comes in all sorts of shapes and size and try and narrow it down to a single mean I think it is shortsighted to say the least. People fall in love for different reasons. As some fall in love because they need companionship. Others it may because of lifestyle, or who the person is.
They may date down, but only a few steps in no way will they date someone way down on the economic ladder of them. I be surprise as heck if they where willing to let alone actually went out with a guy that made way less than them. Saying this tho in the not to far future tho girls economically will be forced to date down as well they be making more than guys down the road as more girls are going to college and graduating compared to guys.

Yea Jurupa, thats what I meant they'll date down, but they won't settle long-term.
